I heard they weren't terrible if you extend the mounts to beef it up?

What's Ryans fan? And ok I appreciate the tip is that because the stock mounts are not strong enough ?

Ok I got a stick welder and some plate steel beefing it up is definitely possible. I don't know one bumper from another honestly so it was in my price range and looked nice. Is the fact that it mounts up to stock mounts the big downside?

He meant ryans fab, I know he sells on eBay, his bumpers use the factory bolt holes, 3 on each side. Check out Nate's4x4,he sells tie in plates for 30 bucks I think, weld them onto the bumper mounts and you will have it pretty stout

Nice thanks man. No its not ryans fab. Didn't see anything with that name. It's bumperbarn and a guy named Sam. How do I find nates4x4 ? Are they on eBay or in Pa?

I can also cut you out a set similar to JCR's. and if you need a new spacer for the steering box, I've got a couple of those as well made from steel.

Thanks guys. Man any help you can give I'd more than compensate you for your time. The set your talking about would be something to beef up the mount for the bumper? And then I'd need to put a spacer in for the steering box? I apologize I'm a little confused. I'm sick as a dog and trying to take care of my little guy.

Damn autocorrect lol. Ryan's Fab is what I meant. The stock mounting points are not nearly strong enough for a decent recovery. The steering box spacer that Scott mentioned just a stronger replacement for the stock spacer.

The spacer is just for the box. You either need full stiffeners for the frame or extended brackets.

This is a new spacer for the Durango box with extended bushings and only 16ga plate since I already had to plate the frame from the rollover.

Gotcha ok yea I'm going to need that then. Right in the description it says bolts right on to stock mounts..I should have known better lol. Which is the better way to go as far as full stiffners or extended brackets? I don't mind spending a little more to make it right it just comes down to what I can actually do myself. If you have extra parts for what I need to make bumper happen let me know and I'd be very grateful for them just need to know what kinda price we are looking at.
